THE BASICS

Jesse Brand is a passionate singer/ songwriter and yogi. With three contemporary acoustic albums, Jesse has performed around New Zealand, Australia, and his home country Canada.  Currently, Jesse is working to blend his love of kirtan, electronic energy, and his song-writing. The result is an upbeat vibe of both mantra and meaning, containing original lyrics and improvised poetic rap.

Jesse Brand has been performing original acoustic music for most of his life, growing up in the suburbs of Nova Scotia, Canada he differed from the norm with an interest in philosophy, meditation, yoga, and spirituality from a young age.  He intertwined these concepts into his music over the coming years as he performed throughout Canada and Australia.  In his early twenties, he arrived in New Zealand where he practiced sustainable living for a number of years, learning to connect with the earth and natural cycles hands on.  

​

Eventually, realizing a desire to reconnect with the world and share his music, Jesse embarked on several tours through New Zealand and Australia.  With a grass roots mentality, Jesse shared his music on sidewalks, cafes, bars, and festivals.  He would seek solstice at spiritual centers along the way, trained as a yoga instructor, and even filmed a documentary featuring his life as a Traveling Musician.

Today, Jesse lives in Invercargill where he studies audio production and contemporary music, teaches yoga and composes new music material that draws a connection between music and spirituality. His current projects include original acoustic/electronic music, electronic (EDM) Kirtan, Improvised Spiritual Rap, and even yoga classes that are delivered via rapping instructions that coordinate the moments to beat. These performances can be found at conscious/open-minded festivals through New Zealand and Australia.
